Abstract
The article examines the transcriptomic signature of pregnane X receptor (PXR) activation in the liver of adult wild-type vs. Pxr -/- C57BI6/J male mice treated with the rodent specific ligand pregnenolone 16-carbonitrile. Topics covered include potential metabolic dysregulations induced upon PXR activation, effect of PXR activation on physiological parameters and liver lipids, and the effects of PXR activation on the hepatic transcriptome.
